More and more restaurants are
adding vegan options at the request of their customers. Use social media and
the telephone to contact your favorite restaurants and ask them for more
vegan options. Choosing vegan food is easier than ever and with some simple
tips it is sure to be a breeze! Try Asian, Indian, Italian, Middle Eastern
and other ethnic restaurants which will almost always have something to
suit your needs. If you're out of town and are having a hard time locating a
restaurant visit websites such as happycow or vegdining for markets and
restaurants throughout the world. Here are some tips that may help you have
an enjoyable dining experience:

Do not be shy when ordering your food! Most restaurants can and will accommodate your requests and adjust dishes to
accommodate your preferences.

Watch out because some restaurants will mislabel an item as
vegan or vegetarian when it is not. Items may be made in fish, beef, or chicken
broth and it is always good to confirm. Some examples of this may include:
vegetable curry dishes that contain fish sauce, rice and beans that were cooked
in animal products and salad dressings, sauces and pasta dishes that contain
dairy and eggs.
